Soha Ali Khan - the emerging sex symbol after Antar Mahal and Abhay Deol - the sweet next door kind of guy, are nowadays attending acting classes to brush up their skills for Shivam Nair’s romantic film ‘Ahista Ahista’.

It is Soha’s first solo release and she is looking forward to start working on it. “It’s a romantic film and my character has a nice touch to it,” she says. Shooting for the film will commenced on Nov 30 and it will be shot mostly in Delhi and Nainital.

Ahista Ahista is a story about how love can develop between two people slowly and gradually. Abhay plays the role of an employee who works as a witness in a marriage registration office. Soha is a small town girl who runs away to a big city with her boyfriend, played by Shayan Munshi. Once in the city her boyfriend ditches her. She then meets Abhay and the two grow fond of each other.

Incidentally Soha’s intimate scenes with Abhishek Bachchan in ‘Antar Mahal’ are creating quite a stir and many believe that sex has been used to sell the film. But Soha and Abhishek Bachchan are giving all their support to director Rituparna Ghosh.

Soha Ali Khan was reported to have said there’s no hint of obscenity in the scenes whereas Abhishek Bachchan was reported to have said, “Ritu is a sensitive director and the intimate scenes have been done aesthetically.”
